Whether you’re looking for a small, delicate piece or a full-sleeve masterpiece, Broken Sword Tattoo offers a diverse range of styles to suit your needs. Our artists are proficient in various tattoo styles, including:

Traditional Tattoos

Traditional tattoos, also known as American traditional or old school tattoos, are characterized by their bold lines, vibrant colors, and iconic imagery. This style emerged in the early 20th century and is heavily influenced by the work of pioneers like Sailor Jerry Collins. Traditional tattoos often feature motifs such as anchors, roses, pin-up girls, daggers, and nautical themes. The designs are usually straightforward, with minimal shading and a classic color palette that includes red, green, yellow, and black. These tattoos are known for their durability and bold appearance, making them a timeless choice for tattoo enthusiasts.

Realism Tattoos

Realism tattoos aim to replicate real-life images as accurately as possible on the skin. This style requires a high level of skill and attention to detail from the artist, as it involves intricate shading, depth, and precision. Realism tattoos can depict anything from portraits of loved ones and celebrities to animals, nature scenes, and even surrealistic elements. The primary goal is to create a tattoo that looks like a photograph or a three-dimensional object. These tattoos often take longer to complete due to the complexity of the design and the meticulous technique required.

Fine Line Tattoos

Fine line tattoos are characterized by their delicate and precise lines, often creating intricate and detailed designs. This style is popular for minimalist tattoos, including small symbols, text, and geometric patterns. Fine line tattoos can be black or colored but are typically less bold and more subtle compared to traditional styles. The precision required for fine line work demands a steady hand and expert control of the tattoo machine. These tattoos are favored for their elegance and the ability to fit detailed artwork into smaller spaces.

Japanese Tattoos

Japanese tattoos, also known as Irezumi, are a traditional style with deep cultural significance. These tattoos often cover large areas of the body, such as the back, arms, and legs, and are known for their detailed and intricate designs. Common themes include koi fish, dragons, samurai, cherry blossoms, and mythological creatures. Japanese tattoos use a specific color palette, with a strong emphasis on black, red, green, and yellow. The designs often incorporate a mix of flowing elements like waves and wind bars to create a cohesive and dynamic look. The artistry of Japanese tattoos is rooted in centuries-old traditions, and the designs often carry symbolic meanings.

Black & Grey Tattoos

Black & Grey tattoos use only black ink in varying shades to create depth and contrast. This style is achieved through techniques such as shading, stippling, and smooth gradients. Black & Grey tattoos can range from realistic portraits and intricate patterns to surrealistic and abstract designs. The absence of color allows for a focus on the play of light and shadow, creating a dramatic and timeless effect. This style is popular for its versatility and ability to convey complex imagery and emotions.

Blackwork Tattoos

Blackwork tattoos are distinguished by their use of solid black ink to create striking and often large-scale designs. This style encompasses a range of substyles, including geometric patterns, tribal art, and abstract compositions. Blackwork tattoos can be simple or highly complex, often incorporating elements such as mandalas, symmetrical designs, and bold, thick lines. The high contrast and bold nature of blackwork tattoos make them stand out and endure well over time. This style is appreciated for its versatility and the powerful visual impact it delivers.
